I disagree. It's much easier to, you know, compress ones than, you know, zeros because ones, you know, ones, like, just takes up much less space, you know. However, I have, you know, just invented, like, a flipping compression algorithm, you know, like, ehhh, flipping a coin, but, you know, around the vertical axis, that, like, flips each zero 90 degrees, you know, making it virtually as slim as, you know, the ones. This enables me to stack, you know, like, the same amount of ones and zeros during, you know, compression, and I, like, get much more data, you know, through the, you know, like, the cable, you know, than I would with, you know, ordinary, like, non-flipped, you know, zeroes. And since, you know, the flip is, you know, like, a very inexpensive, you know, operation (Dude.. Like close to zero friction, you know?), ehh, so, you know, like, compressing and decompressing is like, you know, extremely fast'n'stuff. -- Christian Haugan Toldnes Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle _______________________________________________ tsl-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trustix.org/mailman/listinfo/tsl-discuss
